A powerful first step into a new chapter as a freelance artist

Artist Taichi Mukai returns with his long-awaited new single "Eyes on you", set for digital release on Wednesday, August 13-marking his first release under his name in nearly two years.
The song explores the theme of "a new beginning that starts with goodbye", blending a bittersweet emotional core with a sense of strength and determination. Produced by Lumel and haku2, who have been central to his work under the TAIL moniker, the track features a delicate yet resolute soundscape.
Both the recording and cover photo shoot took place in South Korea, capturing the emotional landscape of Mukai's current state through a cross-border creative process.
Lyrically, the song portrays the gentle strength of continuing to care for someone, even while facing the pain of parting ways. The recurring phrase "It's okay" echoes like a quiet prayer-not only for the other person, but also as self-reassurance and a step toward renewal.
This release also marks a significant milestone: his first step as an independent artist after parting ways with his longtime management. It is a deeply personal work that reflects his renewed determination as a creator.
As his first release as Taichi Mukai in nearly two years, "Eyes on you" is set to resonate deeply with fans who have followed and supported his journey through every chapter.
